I woke up to some feet stomping on the ground and turn to see AJ and Willy walking around the living room a bit, I sit up but stop when I feel a body on me and looked to see Clementine sleeping on my chest.

"Clem and you overslept again." AJ said.

"Sorry kiddo." I said and slowly got up and laid Clementine down and went with them outside and let them run around a bit. I watched the area for walkers and I saw Minnie walking around a bit. She came over to me and tapped Clem's hat that was on my head.

"You good?" I asked.

"Hm... not really still.... Thinking about Tenn." She says and I rub my face.

"Yea.... Sorry I um." I tried to speak but really couldn't.

"It's fine, I shouldn't have brought him up." She says and I look at you.

"It's fine." I said and looked at Willy and Tenn.

"Less and less people these days." She says and I nod.

"Yea.... Can't be helped though." I said.

"It can."

"Don't..... don't bring up those raiders, that community had deaths too, walkers and people alike." I said and she looks at me.

"I didn't mean."

"Yea... let's just forget it." I said and watched AJ as he ran. I heard the door open and looked at Clementine as she came out.

"Morning." I tell her and she groans.

"Yea, Yea, I over slept again." She says and I laugh a bit.

"It's fine." I tell her and she looks at me.

"Alright, I'm gonna work on the truck more, see if I can get the damn thing working." She mumbled and goes back in to get the tool bad.

"She's something else isn't she." Minnie says and I look at her.

"Yea... hard worker, doesn't give up.... Lots of good things." I said and got up to help Clem as we went to the truck and we began working. It was a few hours before I got out from under and I wiped the grease on my shirt.

"Mind starting it up?" She asked as she came out and threw me the keys. I grabbed them then she filled the oil up a bit and got on the side and turned the truck on and she looked under.

"I don't see a leak." She says and she looks at me as she gets up.

"That's good." I said and she looked under the hood and nods as she closes it and I turned the truck off and she wipes her hands on my vest and I chuckle at her and she smiles and I kiss her gently.

"You did good." She says and I smile.

"What kissing you or helping with the truck?" I asked.

"Both actually." She says and I smile.

"Alright we can pack up and head out in a few." I say and she nods.

"Yea, pretty much." She says and I look at her.

"You good?" I asked.

"Yea I'm good." She says and cleans up the tools then places them in the trunk of the vehicle and I lower the truck.

"We can leave tonight." She says and I nod.

"Sounds good to me." I say and she nods then heads inside to tell everyone what we will be going. I watched as AJ and Willy went inside and packed their bags as I walked in.
